Judge Family Ancestors

John Judge (Formerly John Breheny)

John Judge – Brother to James Joseph Breheny (Judge in Australia)

John ‘known as Jack’ Breheny, was born 5/06/1892 in Carracastle, County Mayo Ireland – Buried Townsville date TBC). On emigrating to Australia John and his two brothers changed their surname to Judge (after their grandmother’s maiden name). I don’t believe they did this officially, so will need to confirm this fact later in my research.

Can you see the resemblance John has to his mother Catherine Breheny. What a great photo as he looks so relaxed with his pipe.

John married Mary Kelly and they had six children, 3 girls and 3 boys.
